In the Spring of 2012, my wife and I decided our 1984-style kitchen was desperate for an upgrade. My initial plan was to simply pull out old cabinets and put in new ones and upgrade appliances where needed...all DIY. After some serious discussion about what this would mean in the way of time, effort, and wife support, we decided to contract some company to do the work. We soon stumbled upon J&M Kitchen and Bath and Mr. Paul Priester. On his first visit to our house, he quickly laid out a much better plan than I had envisioned: increasing floorspace, cabinet storage space, and general kitchen maneuverability. It was immediately apparent that he had the experience to implement what we wanted in a much better way than we thought. He was able to design a solution within "the art of the possible," given our limited financial resources. Within a few weeks and after a couple of visits to his office in Castlerock, CO, we refined the plan with specifics on cabinet style, wood type, appliance brands, et al. The plan became a contract with specifics. His team soon arrived to guide us through kitchen demolition and preparation. They worked with us so that we could participate to the extent possible to minimize the overall cost. Then, his team returned to execute wiring, plumbing and install cabinets while Paul guided us through the granite selection - a process that, from our perspective, required his expertise and artful eye. The project then came together quickly and the finished product is simply superb. We've received so many comments on the J&M work (design and quality of materiel) that I had to ask for business cards to offer those who wanted to pursue similar efforts at their own homes. We enjoyed the results for two years, then the true value of his work was revealed when we sold our home to move to Virginia in 2014. Without question, the kitchen became the centerpiece of our home and the factor that "made the deal." Even after leaving, we've been contacted by the new owner to ask for more business cards because of the number of people who've been impressed by the kitchen.
From beginning to end and beyond, the J&M Kitchen and Bath Company, and Paul Priester in particular, can be counted upon to transform any portion of your home into a showcase of efficiency, modernity and quality. They're experts at project management so that the individual pieces of the project come together in a timely progression that makes sense and happen with minimum disruption to your family schedule. Without hesitation I recommend them for any renovation project from small to big. You'll be very happy with the final product. read more
